ABSTRACT:
A wireless network apparatus and corresponding method and computer program comprises a plurality of ports to transmit and receive data flows comprising packets of data; a memory to store a routing table; a forwarding engine to transfer the packets of data between the ports according to the routing table; and a processor to define a routing interface comprising a selected group of the ports, map a selected media access control (MAC) address to the routing interface, disable link aggregation between the ports in the routing interface, disable bridging between the ports in the routing interface, and modify the routing table to direct each of the data flows having the MAC address as a destination address to one of the ports in the routing interface.
